I see the FAQ entry but still do not understand what to do. 1.
Exactly what file do I give it a path to?
2. Exactly where do I enter this path so Scite will know?
0) make sure you have an installed and working Python
Yes it works fine in PythonWin editor.
Good. So you are on Windows...
1) you probably want the main Python executable [directory] on your path
C:\Python21\python.exe
or
C:\Python21\pythonw.exe
Which one please?
Personally, I would bet on the pythonw, myself.
2) the last few chunks of python.properties
Exactly where? I tried a few variations w/no luck.
Properties files are fairly readable, especially the things you need to
tweak. ;)
When looking at the end of the python.properties file, you will notice
that there are two "if" blocks... since we have established that you are
on Windows, the "if PLAT_WIN" looks interesting, right?
So there are two lines that might make sense for you to adjust: 76 and
78. Just insert the "C:\Python21\" from your text above in front of the
occurrences of "pythonw" on these two lines, then save python.properties
and restart SciTE for good measure (the restart may not be required).
BTW, I am not a Python-head like Neil, but version 2.1 may be a bit old?
